Andy was born in London just in time to see England win the World Cup, and much later began his career in academia, gaining a PhD in American Literature and lecturing at several universities, including Maryland and Gothenburg in Sweden, and pursuing a sideline in sheep-farming before moving back to London and becoming a literary agent and TV documentary-maker (working for various broadcasters and making series such as the BBC’s Monsoon Railway, set in Bengal). He has written several biographies, including the Second World War story American Pimpernel, and became the official biographer of India’s Prime Minister (then Chief Minister of Gujarat) publishing Narendra Modi, a Political Biography (Harper Collins). Andy joined Asian Media Group in 2018, his first “proper” job, and has been there ever since, believing that, while trade journalism might not save the world, it might just save journalism.

Registration for the official National Doughnut Week, 7-15 May 2022, is now open. Sign-up is easy, simply visit https://nationaldoughnutweek.org/ to complete the form.

The charity week, sponsored by CSM Ingredients, was launched by Christopher Freeman, co-owner of Dunns Bakery, after watching the harrowing report on the Ethiopian famine by Michael Buerk in 1992, and it had a record-breaking year in 2021 with a whopping £35,333.32 raised. Christopher has raised vital funds for two charities, the most recent being The Children’s Trust, donating £504,381 in total.

All the funds raised through the week go directly to the charity and this year bakers, cafés, bistros, delis and lots of other small businesses from around the country are encouraged to take part and support the week.

"We hope that bakers from around the country sign up and help us raise much needed funds for The Children’s Trust," said Cristiana Ballarini, CSM Ingredients Marketing Director, Pastry Mixes. "It’s been a tough couple of years for everyone and charities are still experiencing a hard time when it comes to fundraising so every penny raised is much appreciated and goes towards supporting children and their families that benefit from The Children’s Trust.”

Registration is now available at https://www.nationaldoughnutweek.org/.
